ABOUT THE TEAM

Alan and Jing Lee are veterans of the restaurant business. They got their start over two decades ago co-owning a small eatery in Park Slope Brooklyn. Taking a sabbatical to attend the Culinary Institute of America at Hyde Park, New York. Alan added European flavors to complement his lifetime of self-taught Asian cooking that began in his teens helping at his father's restaurant in Singapore.

ABOUT THE PAN-ASIAN CUISINE

It began with a simple idea - Alan wanted to revitalize Chinese cuisine and rediscover an original flavor and style. Ironically, the path to recovering authenticity involved a strikingly modern idea: "multiculturalism." Alan's history of cooking and dining experiences helped him to realize the compatibility of distinct Asian cultures: Chinese, Indonesian, Malaysian, and Thai, among others; and convinced him the future of Asian food culture laid in expanding the possibilities.
